[CLOSED][Upcoming Halloween event]: The Hallowed Blight

Tired of this event format but I appreciate there being a bit of variety in the rewards now

Golden particle effects coming out the costumes?

When I was looking at the cosmetics piece by piece they look so dull.

I am hoping they actually glow.

There's a video on YouTube showing what the skins will look like in game and they do glow. 

@Blood_Coil_Viper Link?

Source?

Edit: because we all know how reliable wiki is...

So... Nothing for the survivors? 

That's what I was thinking... Then meh what's the point? It doesn't make sense... 🤷‍♀️

Maybe the Dwight and Claudette skins that got revealed. 

What is a Visceral Canker?

I put tons of my spare time voluntarily into keeping the Wiki up-to-date and accurate.

You are doing a great job. 
Just ignore those comments.

Sorry, I didn’t mean to offend. Thank you for the work you do. I was mostly joking about how lots of folks were pretty mad at the Wiki on September 11th when the spirit didn’t release. I was not one of them. Because I was waiting for dev confirmation before I got my hopes up. 

It seems like all 5 Killers have been injected with Putrid Nectar Serum, which has infected them, turning them into 'undead' glowing killers. 

Do you think players would have enough time to unlock all of them?

The wiki is not official btw

Wiki is as official as it can get. 

Cannot agree more. Dead By Daylight can be a very confusing game for new players. There are literally thousands of aspects of this game. But Wiki makes it easier. I still follow it for more information ingame stuff, despite being a DBD veteran. So, the DBD wiki is helpful for all the players and it's updated very quick. Consider it super official.

So we will need a new type of currency to purchase these skins? So all the shards I'm hording right now will have no use for this event? That kinda sucks if that's the case.

Event coins. They exist only during the event and can only buy event skins.
Just like the summer BBQ event with BBQ hooks and pinata gens.

And where does the information come from that the cosmetics are the rewards? I have looked through the game files myself (at least what can be found on the web, I can't decode it myself) and while the majority of the wiki information can be found in there, I see no connection between the cosmetics and event rewards.

I'm just a bit suspicious because considering what was given as rewards in previous events and looking at the quality of the Hallow Blight cosmetics, this would be ... well ... the devs being more generous than ever before would be an understatement.

I'm also curious as to where most of the info came from in the files. The cosmetics are easy enough to find but something like the lore I have no idea where to look.

Don't listen to the haters!

Just because YOU can't find it since you can't decode stuff, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Everything's on the Wiki.

You people go on my nerves. I spent 2.5 hours last night compiling all the information together into a clean, proper Wiki Article and you ingrates just keep on bitching about where I got the information from.

You have to understand that we don’t know you from the next guy on the forums. People don’t tend to trust what they read on the Internet just because someone says it’s true, and rightly so. 

As as far as the work you put in, that was nice of you. Thank you. But...you also chose to do it. It’s something you did in your free time. Nobody made you. So yelling at us for asking questions is a little overboard.

Hallowed blight skins look really cool. But can someone answer me why the huntress gets so many new outfits? Isn't she the only one with 2 purple rarity outfits? Is she one of the highest played killers? Just curious

I think Nurse has 2 purple rarity outfits as well. And Hag does

Calm Spirit, Doc ...

If you parse my previous post correctly, I have read through the game files (just have to rely on what's uploaded by someone to Github, cannot decode myself because it's tough to access anything on console). And, I recognize the vast majority of information as properly taken from the files, so in case someone doubts I do absolutely vouch for it being taken from the game itself. You have really done a good job with that, thanks for your time.

My only single point was, I just went through the entire changelog and could not see any hint that the cosmetics of the Haunted Blight collection could be grinded for during the event "for free". And comparing the previous event rewards such as the black Huntress mask or Kate's shirt to the HB cosmetics that look more awesome to me than some of the current "high end" stuff that is only available for purchase with auric cells, I was wondering where this information came from that for this event there would be a "grind and get for free even without needing any shards" set of premium outfits.

It would be awesome if that was the case, I just don't want to be disappointed. And as I know the community, some would get out their virtual pitchforks and call the devs liars if the event reward is something different even though there's no official word at all so far ...
